MS Access database was one of the standard data connections in DTS. Excel is listed as a scourc/destination, but access is not. Question:
What is the best connection to use for MS-Access databases for output of data?
We generally process the ETL in SQL server then, export to Access database.
THANKS!!

I have followed the instructions to the letter and still cannot connect to the Access database on the desktop. I am running XP Pro with Office 2003. I am using MaAfee virus scan and I disabled Access Protection, buffer Overflow protection. On-Delivery E-mail scanner and On-Access Scanner iare still enabled. . The error log on my device reads "Failure to open SQL Server with given command" and Error connecting to Access Database.
Also is there a VB equivelent to the Visual studio application avaiable for download?
Thanks in advance
Currently i have a SQL database on our server and an adp file that allows the end user to open the database to play with the data.
On the client side the user navigates to the adp file from above and opens it which allows them to do their work.
I need the same database but for another department, so i copied the SQL and adp file to another folder and renamed it. I then open the adp file from the new folder created using Access 2002 on Win XP Pro SP2, click File navigate to connection and refresh the data source and server name but i cant see the new database i copied over.
I then stop/start the Sql server but same issue. I now think i might need an ODBC connection but when going into ODBC the other database has no connection setup in there therefore i guess i dont need to for the new database. I type the name of the new database in connection (Access 2002) and comes back with an error (Cant find it)
Any idea about this one? all im trying to do is have the same database with a different name and allowing clients to connect to it?
Thanks
Ok, I need to give some details. I have a secure Access Database using WorkGroup Security logon. It is an Access 97 database (yes I know it is "old").
I tried to create a DTS package in SQL Server 2000 to connect to it, but I am getting the same error that I got before I "joined" the workgroup when attempting to access the DB. So I changed the Service logon identites to mimic <me> as the logon, and still I can't get it to connect. The user name and password I put in the connection are correct.
It seems like nothing is working and I am all out of ideas. Does anyone have any recommendations? Has anyone done anything like this successfully?
PS: I can manually logon to the database, and extract the data 1 table at a time, but I don't want to export 40 tables each time I have to load this data. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

The reason I had to start a new thread was that the old thread seems to be closed. There is no "Reply" button showing.
I still have the same problem. The last post asked if I was sure I was using SQLExpress.
I only have SQLEXPress and I have never had anything else. Therefore the question becomes - Why does the system seem to think I have another version?

MS SQL Server 2005 Express.
I'm trying to connect to Access DB (having System Database) via OPENROWSET.
Everything (client, server and access file) is on local drive.
This works (ODBC):
select *
from openrowset('MSDASQL',
'Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=C:MBK.mdb;SystemDB=C:SECURED.MDW;Uid=me;Pwd=pw;',
'select * from [Mbk]')
This works (Jet.OLEDB):
select *
from opendatasource('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Data Source=C:MBK.mdb;Jet OLEDBystem Database=C:SECURED.MDW;User ID=me;Password=pw;')
...Mbk
This won't work (Jet.OLEDB):
select *
from openrowset('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'MS Access;Database=C:MBK.mdb;System Database=C:SECURED.MDW;UID=me;PWD=pw;',
'select * from [Mbk]')
saying ... "Wrong argument".
This won't work (Jet.OLEDB):
select *
from openrowset('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'MS Access;Database=C:MBK.mdb;SystemDB=C:SECURED.MDW;UID=me;PWD=pw;',
'select * from [Mbk]')
saying ... "There are no permissions for usage of object C:MBK.mdb". It seems that it simply hasn't found system database file C:SECURED.MDW, cause when I change SystemDB=C:SECURED.MDW to something like BlahBlahBlah=C:SECURED.MDW the same message is shown.
So, what is the right syntax for stating System Database in OPENROWSET query string? And why 'System Database' won't work?
Thank you.

how can I connect SSIS 2005 to Progress database?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI installed SQL 2005 including backward compatibility, MSDN libraries and SP2 a new Windows 2003 server (chose mixed mode authentication). Installation was successful and I then installed an off the shelf database with Windows authentication which also installed successfully.
I created a new group in AD, added the database users into the group and gave db-owner rights to the group in SQL as advised by the installation guide. However, when I try to open the database it gives an error message saying "Cannot open database.[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).] SQL server does not exist or access denied". I also tested it adding an individual user (myself) as a user to no avail.
When I set up DSN in ODBC on my computer I can successfully test the connection but can't run the application. The connection is via TCP/IP.
Any suggestions?

2. Load the converted Access 2013 database into sql server 2012?
I can connect to SQL from some Access forms that are in SQL test server.
But when I try and connect to the same forms on a development server I cannot insert records. Even though I have changed the connection in the script.
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong????? I do have full permissions both boxes.

We have been asked to look into using stored procedures with SQL Server 7.0 as a way to speed up a clients site. 99% of all the articles I have read along with all the books all say Stored Procedure should be used whenever possible as opposed to putting the SQL in your ASP script. However one of my colleagues has been speaking to Microsoft and they said that that they were surprised that our client wanted to use Stored Procedures as this was the old method of database access and that now he should really consider using COM objects for data access as itis much faster. Has anyone got any views on this or know of any good aticles regarding this matter ?

Hello
I'm facing a dilemma. I have quite a lot of users who need read access to data for analysis purposes. By granting them read access you also give them the option to connect to the database using MS Access which puts locks on the data.
First I thought of generating stored procedures for all tables within a database those users need to query but when users execute a stored procedure with the name of the table, they get a resultset of all the data. They cannot filter the data by for example using select top 100* from usp_table where name like '%worf%'
I'm sure I'm not the only one here but I don't see any alternative then grant them those rights.
Thanks!
Best Regards,
Worf

The source database has "invalid" dates such as "6/4/199" and "12/23/1899". I am unable to change the data in the source database and have been instructed to load the values as nulls in the SQL destination tables. I tried to do a conditional split using a "ISDATE()" function but that is not a valid function for conditional splits.
What are my options for validating the incoming dates are correct or nulling the dates out that aren't

How do you setup a conntection in ssis to connect to an access mdb? I have used DTS to upload access tables to sql and want to do the same in the new ssis services. I migrated the DTS package but the connection in created for the access mdb does not work in ssis and is shown to be be illegal. The migration did not post any errors when it migrated the package.
View 8 Replies View RelatedWe have just upgraded to SQL Server 2005 from 2000. We have an MS Access application that connects and links tables from the new SQL Server database. Users are getting errors when creating records for the first time on the subscriber databases. We have reseeded the primary keys on all the tables to no avail. The only thing we can think of that may be a problem is the version of ADO that we're using as a reference in the MS Access application. We have a reference to ADO 2.5 and don't know whether we should be using 2.8. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi all,
I'm working on a project where I have to create a password protected form for teachers to submit reports about students.
Originally I was going to use asp.net to create the form, but unfortunately the server I'm working with will not be granted asp functionality in the allotted timeframe.
To solve this issue I have another idea. So I will ask a few questions to help with research before I begin coding.
Is it possible to create a windows application that can connect to an access database hosted online? The windows app will need to be be able to update, insert, and select information from the database.
There is only going to be about 30-40 people using this windows application once or twice a week.
Thus I envision taking a password protected access database and dropping it onto a server.
The windows application will have the online location of the database embeded into the code. (connection string)
From there on out coding for the windows application should be the exact same as if the database was hosted locally on the computer, correct?
Also,
1. What is a good way to check and make sure the computer is connected to the internet before my application tries to access the database?
2. Are there any drastic security issues with this process that I should think about. The database will only be password proected, and the windows application will take a username/password from the user and check it against a table before they are able to submit info to the database.
I just need to be pointed in the right direction for this project.
Thanks.

The server that needs to be moved: SERVER A.
The databases which need to be moved (present in SERVER A): DB-A, DB-B.
The SERVER A machine is in X domain
The target machines: Could be any of SERVER T1
This machine is in Y domain.
While we are trying to create a new server instance of the Server A in SERVER T1, we are getting an error message as shown below:
Reason: SQL server does not exist or access denied. (ConnectionOpen (Connect())
The server that needs to be moved SERVER A could not be mapped to SERVERT1.
Problem: The tables concerned present in the SERVER A and the production server are same. These could be extracted to SERVERT1 using the SQL Enterprise Manager utility.
Views and Stored Procedures concerned are only present in SERVER A. Problem lies in copying them. Manually doing so could pose great risks.
What is the plausible work around for this?

I have been for years using the following code locally in native ASP (except different UID and PWD and file path for the msado15.dll) with SQL Server 2000 on XP to do my development and then I upload to the web site later (uses different objConn etc when live). I've now tried to use the same for SQL Server Express and Vista and always get the "does not exist or access denied" error ( 2147467259).
I only want to use SQL Server locally from the machine I'm developing on as I upload the tested "ASP" code to the server which runs it. The SQL Server Browser is running and I have checked the Firewall exclusions for sqlservr.exe. Also I installed it with out Windows Logon (same as I had for SQL Server 2000).
Any ideas, I tried using the Data Source=localhost instead of explicitly defing the path except that had no affect either, I also changed the rshstest_data.mbf to rshstest.mbf as well also to no affect as there appears a difference with this in 2000 and Express?
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks..

The install is on a x64 2003 with a x64 enterprise edition, with two instances. So what msdb is it trying to connect to since I can't seem to see this anywhere in management studio?
Initially installed the two instances without named pipe support (only tcpip), but the naitive client was configured for named pipe support. I have now enabled named pipe support for both instances as well and afterwards restarted the server, but the problem persists.
I've also checked the two instaces to verify that they allow remote connections, as well as doubling the query timeout period to 1200.
I managed to move via DTS backup (non ms tool) a package from a test server onto the 2005 instance under Management -> Legacy -> DTS. Then I ran a migration of the imported pacakge and that ran smoothly as well.
So now I would just like to see the result of the converted pacakage.
Any clues to what I do wrong?
